Reid hoffman1/12/2024 ![]() ![]() And that’s a lens into the assistant I was talking about. ![]() Like in my fireside-chat box with ChatGPT, I talked about, well, how does language mean in Wittgenstein’s theory of language and language games? You know, you could do this whole range of things. It gives much deeper, richer language information, and it can range from anything, you know, like dad jokes to like deep analyses. ![]() Hoffman: Well I published a book, as you know, called Impromptu, and I authored it with GPT-4. GPT-4: This is the new multi-language model that can interpret images along with presumably better answers, is a bigger language model, etc. It makes you more effective in what you’re doing, and it gives even no-skill people in graphic design, like me, some graphics, some powers, where I can send my friend Kara, you know, a birthday card and kind of craft it myself. This is amplifying whether or not you’re no skill, low skill, medium skill, or high skill. You know, I wrote essays about DALL-E saying, look, this isn’t replacing graphic-designer jobs. Swisher: Okay, so that’s a helpful assistant.ĭALL-E, which was also OpenAI and more focused on visual creation, meaning mushing up pictures and things like that? is there will be a co-pilot that will be between useful and essential for you doing that activity, you doing that job, within two to five years. And what that will mean for everyone who does any professional activity - and I think “professional activity” is I consume information, I make a decision, I might make a decision about investing, I might make a decision about a prescription, I might make a decision about where to go, etc. Reid Hoffman: So the simple description is it’s like an amazing research assistant, across a wide variety of things, that gives you an instant answer. Tell me what the use case is in your assessment of how revolutionary it’s been or will be.ĬhatGPT, the old iteration of OpenAI’s language processing? Kara Swisher: I want you to explain some of these technologies in a lightning round. She also grills Hoffman about his seemingly unflinching tech optimism in the condensed segment below, she asks him to make his best case for several new AI-based technologies as well as explain what does, in fact, worry him about how AI could go wrong. Hoffman is an AI evangelist who is knee-deep in that world (including, until he recently stepped down, being on the board of OpenAI, the nonprofit behind ChatGPT and GPT-4), while Kara looks at the current AI frenzy and sees storm clouds ahead.ĭuring her conversation with Hoffman, Kara asks the longtime tech entrepreneur and investor for his thoughts on a range of topics, from the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank to his political advocacy and ongoing fears about Donald Trump. Kara Swisher has gotten to know a lot of tech-industry people over the years, and as she explains to producer Nayeema Raza in this episode of On With Kara Swisher, she knows “the difference between jerks and people who really actually do care about something bigger than themselves.” Kara wholeheartedly believes LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman falls into the latter camp, even if the two of them don’t always agree about the benefits and harms of new technologies such as artificial intelligence. ![]()
